Cinavia Finished Detector for ADI SHARC

Supporting Analog Devices ADSP 2126x and 2136x DSPs
Cinavia is a technology platform that employs Verance's proprietary audio watermarking techniques to enable the communication and enactment of use policies for audiovisual content across a broad range of distribution channels and devices.

Cinavia has been adopted as a required component of the AACS content protection system. Blu-ray players with Cinavia detectors began entering the consumer market in late 2009.

To facilitate Blu-ray component and player manufacturers with the successful and timely integration of Cinavia technology with their products, Verance is offering a line of ready-to-use object-code libraries (“Cinavia Finished Detectors”) that implement the Cinavia Detector Specification. This enables Cinavia Finished Detector customers to reduce their engineering effort, product costs, and time-to-market.

Cinavia Finished Detectors have been certified by Verance to comply with the requirements of the Cinavia Detector specifications. There is no need for additional detector compliance validation or optimization, no source code to maintain and protect, and no requirement for specialized watermark technology or digital signal processing (DSP) expertise. Software robustness (i.e., tamper resistance) technology is not included, and must be applied to products including Finished Detectors prior to sale.

The Cinavia Finished Detector for ADI SHARC is an object-code module compatible with Analog Devices' ADSP-2126x and ADSP-2136x families of programmable Digital Signal Processors. It provides a highly optimized solution that can be easily integrated with other system functions, allowing consumer product developers to reduce product costs, minimize engineering efforts, and reduce time-to-market.
